We Do

Over the past few months, Eitan has gotten really into making up and playing out stories with a trio of tiny axolotl toys he obtained by persuading his grandparents to purchase a slime set which included them. Eitan named the axolotl he plays with the most Rainbow while I was bestowed the honor of naming the remaining two. So, of course, I named them Pinky and the Brain.

While Eitan enjoys exploring new adventures, the winning storylines tend to stick around. One such recent “adventure” which has lasted had all three (!) axolotls marry and travel to various international destinations for their honeymoons. There was very little concern from Eitan into whether or not this was allowed, so good job on being open-minded I guess?

The family name we decided to go with? The Dangers.

Ball, stop!

After a fantastic round of T-ball, Eitan and Dada played a little catch. When Dada missed the ball, Eitan created a new game. Dada was ejected from the backyard. It was now only Eitan and the ball. Once the ball got rolling, we were treated to this little back and forth:

Eitan: Ball, stop!

Mama: Can it hear you?

Eitan: No. It doesn’t have a mouth.

Life lessons for us all.
